USSS run a range of concerts, workshops and events exploring acousmatic, electroacoustic and electronic music.

Sound Junction

About Sound Junction

The Sound Junction series has one central aim: to make acousmatic, electroacoustic and electronic music accessible to a listening public, by presenting the most exciting and innovative music from around the globe, live in concert. Using a purpose-built sound diffusion system, and with technical support from the University of Sheffield Sound Studios, these events present increasingly diverse musical forms and styles in ideal listening conditions; a dark, concert space filled with loudspeakers, thus allowing for concentrated, dedicated listening.
